Agricultural Experiment Station.
The Georgia Agricultural Experi
ment Station, established under act
of Congress, hus been located at
Athens. Elsowhere we publish tko
announcement of W. L. Jones, Di
rector. Milledgeville lias been se
lected as one of the six subsidiary
culture stations, to be located in dif
ferent parts of the State. We learn
these sub-stations will be furnished
with seed, fertilizers, implements,
&e. It will be expected that twenty
acres shall bo cultivated under the
direction of the Station at Athens,
and accurate reports be made to the
same. The cultivator will, wo sup
pose, be allowed the products of this
farm a» compensation for his labor
In our opinion, Prof. O. M. Cone,
of the Middle Georgia Military and
Agricultural Colloge, Is the proper
person to be placed in charge of the
Milledgeville Station. The act con
templates that these experiment sta
tions shall bo connected with the
Branch colleges. Prof. Cone owns a
farm near the city where he could
make the required experiments until
such time as our city fathers or some
benevolently inclined individual
shall donate land for the purpose,
which wo trust will bo soon. We know
a gentleman who owns a large body
of land adjoining the city who could
donate fifty or sixty acres of land
for the purpose, and never miss it.
In fact, a number of our land-own
ers might part with a portion of their
laud for more or less important pur
poses, and bo all the richer for so do
ing ; for instance the donation of sites
for factories. And wo may say here,
that wo desire to see a land company
organized in this city, that will of
fer inducements to enterprises that
will increase the value of our lands.
But not to digress, we hope and be
lieve tho “subsidiary culture station”
without an appropriation, will re
ceive such help and encouragoment
from our citizens as will make it to
tho Stato Collego of Agriculture and
Mechanic Arts, what our Branch col
lego is to the University, tho biggest
and most useful department of the
whole system.

This distinguished gentleman visi
ted our city on last Saturday, and
spent the day talking with some of
the people he represents in Congress.
A faithful man lie is. True to the
people who have trusted him. true to
the whole people whom, in part, be
represents, lie lms won the love of the
farmer, and the respect and esteem of
the whole country, without regard to
party. Plain, unpretending, honest
and square, is James H. Blount. He
lias no warmer friends in Jones coun
ty, where he was born, than he has in
old Baldwin; and we are ready to call
him higher whenever it is his pleas
ure to leave Congress.
Baldwin should give Col. Blount
every vote.

Mr. Warren Edwards presented us
yesterday with a large, fully ripened
peach, brought to the city by Capt.
A. J. Miller, of Wilkinson county.
What is peculiar about it is, that on
tho same tree it was plucked from
there was a great many green peach
es, half grown, and the tree was cov
ered with blooms.
“Here’s your fresh Oysters,” we
heard on Saturday. You pay your
money for “fresh oysters” and get
some, canned, may be, five years ago.
If people don’t want to be fooled, let
them pay for what they get. If you
want old oysters, buy tho can, and
not permit a side trap to sell you the
same at twice the figures you can
buy them for in any of the stores.
When soino enterprising men in a
town start a project which they ex
pect to bo profitable to them as well as
to the town, lot the moss-backs aud
